Hallmark Channel's Alison Sweeney’s Blueberry Salad Flatbread

As a fitness professional, it is my job to not only
create exercise programs that are safe and effective for my clients, but also
to provide as much information on nutrition as I can. For easy to make, low
calorie, and delicious recipes, one of my favorite sources is Alison Sweeney.
Whether it is through her book, The Mommy Diet, or through her many television
appearances, Alison has shared some of the best recipes to show that healthy
food does not have to taste like cardboard, and I’ve happily shared many of her
recipes with my own clients.

So naturally, I was super excited to be able to share
one of her awesome recipes with the Edible Skinny audience. Alison’s Blueberry
Salad Flatbread is low calorie, easy to make, and most importantly delicious.

Blueberry Salad Flatbread

1 pound pizza dough cut into two pieces, (14.1 oz
package)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 cups packed mixed baby greens

½ cup frozen blueberries, thawed

1 Tbs. thinly sliced red onion (about 1-inch long
pieces)

1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon honey

1/8 tsp. kosher salt

1/16 tsp. cracked black pepper

½ teaspoon lemon zest

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2. On lightly floured surface roll each dough piece
into oblong shape about 11-inches long. Arrange dough’s on baking sheet and
bake 8 minutes or until just beginning to cook through.

3. Remove from oven and top each dough piece with ½
cup shredded cheese. Place flatbreads directly on oven rack, cheese sides up,
and cook until cheese is melted and slightly golden and flatbread is crispy,
8-10 minutes.

For more of the amazing Alison Sweeney, her latest
acting role is The Irresistible Blueberry Farm, which airs October 2nd on
Hallmark at 9pm. She is also hosting the Halloween special of the Kids Baking
Championship with Duff Goldman October 5th on The Food Network, which looks
like it will be another great source of some awesome recipes that I can’t wait
to try!

Here’s to life being delicious, and to more Alison
Sweeney sharing her deliciousness with the world!
